Optimizing Necrophonic Settings for Your Environment

The effectiveness of Necrophonic can vary greatly depending on your environment and the settings you choose. This guide will help you optimize your Necrophonic settings for different locations and conditions.

Understanding Necrophonic's Core Settings

Before diving into specific environments, let's review the main settings in Necrophonic:

  • Echo: Controls the repetition of audio, which can help emphasize and clarify potential responses
  • Reverb: Adds spatial dimension to the audio, creating a more immersive sound environment
  • White Noise: Toggles the optional 9th sound bank from the DR60 recorder
  • Volume: Adjusts the overall output level

Settings for Quiet Indoor Environments

For quiet indoor locations like homes or offices:

  • Echo: 30-40%
  • Reverb: 20-30%
  • White Noise: Off initially, experiment with it on if needed
  • Volume: Medium (50-60%)

These settings provide a good balance that allows for clear potential responses without overwhelming the audio space.

Settings for Historically Active Locations

For locations with reported paranormal activity like historical sites or haunted locations:

  • Echo: 40-50%
  • Reverb: 30-40%
  • White Noise: On
  • Volume: Medium-high (60-70%)

These more aggressive settings can help capture the potentially stronger energy in these locations.

Settings for Outdoor Investigations

For outdoor locations like cemeteries or battlefields:

  • Echo: 50-60%
  • Reverb: 20-30%
  • White Noise: Off (too much environmental noise already)
  • Volume: Higher (70-80%) to overcome ambient noise

Outdoor settings need to account for wind and environmental sounds that can interfere with spirit communication.

Settings for High EMF Environments

For locations with high electromagnetic fields:

  • Echo: 30-40%
  • Reverb: 40-50%
  • White Noise: On
  • Volume: Medium (50-60%)

High EMF environments may already provide energy for spirits to communicate, so these settings enhance without overwhelming.

Experimental Settings for Advanced Users

For experienced investigators looking to try something different:

  • Echo: 70-80%
  • Reverb: 60-70%
  • White Noise: Alternating on/off every 5 minutes
  • Volume: Varying between 40-80% throughout the session

These dynamic settings create a changing audio environment that some investigators believe can yield interesting results.

Conclusion

Remember that these are starting points, and you should adjust based on your results. The best approach is to experiment with different settings and keep detailed notes about what works best in different environments. Over time, you'll develop your own preferred settings for various investigation scenarios.
